Egg problem

[Heihei4]

hello all- my 4 hens have all been laying as of the past couple of weeks! very exciting where I am new at the whole hen thing. They eggs have been all coming out fine. Except today . I got 3 “normal” eggs and one looked like the following... it’s like the size of a large grape and soft. I can’t tell something is inside but I have never seen this before

What happened?
What does this mean?
So many questions

Hello! Welcome to our FUNomenal community!

It is normal for new layers to lay soft eggs until their system works their kinks out. In the meantime, enjoy your fresh new eggs!

Okay they have been laying daily for about a month now. I’ve never had them do this. And we give them ouster shells constantly since we heard that helps harden them.

Probably just a new layer glitch...it happens,
can happen with older birds too,
as long as it's not happening daily I'd not worry about it.
Are you sure all 4 have been laying and this might not be a new layer?

I will check how they look today and will update.
1 started 2 weeks before the rest and then the rest started within a day of each other. I can usually tell the 1st one from the rest cause the eggs are bigger than the rest.
